Dance Classes for Toddlers, Kids & Teens

Kids need constant stimulation for their developing brains and bodies. Most activities don’t challenge them for long, but dance is constantly evolving to keep them on their (pointed) toes!

Terpsichore Dance Company has no trouble keeping their students engaged and excited with their dynamic dance classes. They teach toddlers, kids, teens and adults how to master moves in welcoming ballet classes, tap classes, jazz classes and stretch classes.

There’s no end to the benefits of dance! Physically, it’s a great cardio workout, improves coordination and balance, increases lung capacity, strengthens the core and builds stamina. Plus, it’s one of the world’s most fun-filled forms of self-expression! Letting go and mastering moves builds confidence and puts you in a great mood.

Terpsichore Dance Company teachers design their dance classes to be warm, welcoming and supportive for pupils of all experience levels. So whether you’re a budding bust-a-mover or a die-hard dancer, you’ll find your place with the Terpsichore crew.

But no matter how much your little star wants to shine, fitting in dance classes can be tough for busy families. Luckily, Terpsichore Dance Company makes it easy for you! Their schedule is packed with timeslots across all styles of dance with days divided by age group and style so your child can do a couple classes back to back.

Wonderful dance school

Our son dances in the boys only Jazz and Tap and completely loves it! his younger brother cannot wait to get his turn to dance as well. The administration of the school is immaculately organized by Ms Jess and the caliber of teachers is completely awesome.

My son trialled one class soon after my daughter started, in the boys tap/jazz class and immediately asked if he could enrol...The camaraderie in his class is fabulous and Mr Justin (his teacher) is awesome with the boys. I highly recommend TDC!

My 4 year old daughter started a tap, ballet and jazz class with Miss Jess this year. She was hooked after the first lesson and looks forward to going every week. Once the class is over, she can't wait to get home and show me what she learnt. Miss Jess is a fantastic teacher and is great with the kids - she is cheerful and friendly and keeps them in line!

Both my son and daughter attend dance classes at TDC. They are always so excited to participate in the lessons. My son has developed great co-ordination and love of music. The instructors are wonderful and make the classes enjoyable. End of year Recital is truly amazing.

TDC Dancing classes

My daugher attends a jazz and tap class with Miss Jess and she loves it so much that I decided to join too and I now do an adult tap class. We both have lots of fun, get to socialise and exercise. Thanks Jess!

She loves her teachers and all the friends she has made through the years and I have been so impressed with the professionalism and organisation that Jess brings to the experience. I love the fact that unlike other schools of dance that my friends talk about TDC has discipline but not at the expense of fun. The classes are a wonderful mix of fun and playfulness but also serious training and discipline. The kids are truly happy there and it shows in the end of year show that is one of the highlights of our year. Thank you TDC and miss Jess for taking such good care of our little dancers. Cant wait to start Jade later this year. p

My daughter now loves going and has progressed to ballet. The manner of both Miss Jess and Miss Sarah is perfect - firm, patient and encouraging. They have done wonders for my daughters confidence. As an ex-dancer I am also impressed with the focus on technique and correct use of names. As a parent, I like the level of organisation and being kept informed of progress in class. A great place to learn!!

The classes are a good size and the teachers are very experienced. Come recital time, I was amazed how organized Jess is and how effortlessly she organizes everyone else. I've enjoyed taking my daughter so much there last year, that I have joined an adult class myself this year. I'm really enjoying it. The class times are well suited whether its for kids or adults and it means that I can manage a busy schedule and still incorporate the lessons in my child's life as well as my own.

My daughter started there at only 22 months (she's now 3)...But its a great place for little wannabe princesses/fairies to blossom while developing co-ordination and dance skills.
The classes are well organised, and at convenient times for busy parents.
The teachers are extremely experienced...and encourage the toddlers to express themselves!

My 9 year old daughter loves dancing and finding a place like TDC was wonderful. It is her second year there and during her time she has developed as a dancer but also as a person specially towards her confidence and enthusiasm.

The end of year concert was fabulous and very entertaining . The kids felt so proud to be on the big stage in their beautiful costumes. Needless to say, we were also very proud of them! I would certainly recommend Miss Jess for her abundant enthusiasm and for her own very wide range of dancing skills. She also performed at the concert which was wonderful to see.

My 6 yo daughter had done classical ballet for a year prior to moving to Terpsichore Dance with Jessica. She took up Jazz and tap at the same time not having done them before. Her enjoyment for dance increased with a young, energetic and very enthusiastic teacher who rewards the girls, and her only boy student, with encouragement and support. Jessica's first year end recital this year was professional but lots of fun for the kids, and unlike some other dance companies, the costumes were very age appropriate as were the routines performed. Jess organised all of the costumes and any relevant instructions needed by the parents with regarc to hair and makeup etc, the whole evening was fantastic. Having a dancing background myself, I have every confidence in Jessica as a teacher and a mentor for my daughter. Jessica is a forward thinker who clearly wishes to build a professional dance school. The students are encouraged to have fun but to be disciplined in their dance. I believe the students are challenged to go beyond their comfort zone to an area of learning and excitement. I would recommend Terpsichore to anyone looking for a dance school for their child.

Her dance Teacher, Jessica keeps her class sizes quite small so all students have plenty of attention and one on one time.
